[QUOTE="Forgefly, post: 4193553, member: 55352"] [b]The Box[/b] With only a little effort each of you are able to get across the edge of the pit and into the anachronistic room. The room is luxurious to the point of opulence. The walls are covered in a smooth, silky material that seems to shimmer slightly. Although the fabric definitely evokes a rainbow like feeling, it seems impossible to say precisely what color it is. [b]Arcana DC 18:[/b][spoiler]This is very superior Glamerweave fabric, Lots of it [/spoiler] Along the south wall is a bookcase which seems to hold many books as well as several small crystal in prominent places. The books seemed to be grouped by color of all things with red books of all sizes and shapes together at the top and likewise blue and deep purple books together at the bottom. The crystals are resting in delicate metal tripods which seem designed to both hold and display the crystals, which appear to have red threads within them. [b]Appraise DC 15:[/b][spoiler]Eberron Dragonshard also known as Bloodstone[/spoiler] In front of the bookcase is a very strange piece of furniture which appears to be a cross between a chair and a bed, though there is something strange even beyond the juxtaposition. [b]Dungeoneering or Nature DC 18[/b] [spoiler] the Chaise Lounge is cut to accommodate a rather large tail[/spoiler] Sitting next to the chair-bed is a small table holding a cup of steaming brown liquid and a rather magnificent pipe, both of which look as though they were put down just moments ago.

Karienna speaks a word and makes a gesture and begins to concentrate on her surroundings. Karienna:[spoiler]There are many magical auras in this area after a few moments of concentration, the crystals, a few of the books, the pipe, and teacup, but notably the seemingly obvious floating glowing cube doesn't radiate magic, but as you concentrate on it trying to plumb its mysteries...[/spoiler] After a few moments, the cube begins to change and a portion of the light breaks off of the cube and forms a head and though made of nothing but color a face.
